Awesome Temperature Sensing LED Display Cup – so much technology just to keep your lips safe

There are few things worse than grabbing your favorite hot beverage in a rush only to scald your mouth when the contents prove to be delivered straight from the mouth of a volcano. Or worse, you encounter a rush of stone cold, turgid liquid when what you really needed was a warm soothing flow.

Well thanks to the power of ultra high technology (who thinks up these ideas anyway?) we present the Temperature Sensing LED Display Cup, as fine an invention as you’re likely to see anytime soon. The dual lining insulated cup runs off two AA batteries and automatically monitors the temperature of the liquid to give a digital and iconized indication of the results.

The cup can cope with temperatures ranging from 0 degrees C up to a scorching 90 degrees C, with the color icon cycling through blue, yellow and red to reflect the content’s temp. The cup holds 380 ml of liquid and features a stainless steel interior and plastic outer casing. Suddenly there’s no more nasty surprises! Priced at $38.00.
